With Prokhorov more involved, he will set up a private meeting with Howard that no one will ever find out. During this meeting he will give $1 billion to Superman. For this $1 billion, Howard must continue telling the Orlando Magic that he might stay, so that they keep him past the trade deadline.

lol

edit:

Sources with knowledge of Howard's thinking say nothing has changed about his outlook. And while his wish-list of teams still includes the Nets, Lakers and Mavs, New Jersey is far and away the leader.

Though it may pain the purists, it's not just about basketball for Howard. He wants to take his brand global, to leverage the international influence of Russian owner Mikhail Prokhorov while building his brand as Brooklyn's first star. His wandering eye is enticed not only by the Barclays Center that is set to open next season, but the businesses in the booming area around it that could afford many off-court opportunities. He wants, as one source said, to &quot;be Kobe Bryant, not be with Kobe Bryant.&quot; Of course, it's hardly that simple.

I can't wait till the Nets get absolutely nothing and watch Deron Williams move his talents to Dallas. I dont know if I will be able to hold back the tears of laughter when they open a 1 billion dollar stadium that nobody wants to go to.

We're all in the same game, just different levels. Dealing with the same hell, just different devils

Even if DWill walks away, we have two great young players, Lopez and Brooks. I rather build around those two plus with our potential top 5 draft pick, we can draft another great young player.

A 26 and 27-year-old center and PG won't be good enough to go against the Knicks, Bulls, or Heat. Fuck it add the Hawks in there as well.

By the time Brooks hits his full potential the Heat along with the Knicks may not even be top contenders. Amare and melo are only getting older. So are the Heatles.

Plus all that free cap space.

swag me the fuck out

I see you pootietang

lopez and brooks are good players but they're not guys you can actually build a team around, neither of them appear to have a very high ceiling.

you guys really need to sign dwight or deron will walk and the move to brooklyn will be a bust. i actually hope it works out though, it'd be great to see the knicks and nets as 2 of the best in the east.

building around DWill and a guy who only wants to play in a big market for the big endorsements is not better than building around young promising players.

They aren't going to be D rose got 2 years left at a high level before he starts to lose
that speed that makes him Nice They wasted this year away by getting Rip Hamilton who is
trash now and not waiting to get Ray Allen or sign J rich.

Nets got a good future they should have a decent
group if Marshon Brooks continue to develop
I look forward to seeing SHUMp vs Brooks
for a long while

RIP to Lamar Odom doe D league my nigga Really?
Next up is divorce
Odom bout to lose $50ms Odom my nigga I hate it had to be him
Bitch you wasn't with me sitting on the bench

Rip isn't a major factor, he's played like 12 games this year. Brewer is better than him anyway. You're stupid if you think Rose only has 2 years left, dude is only 22. The Net's won't get past the Bulls anytime soon unless the get Howard

Marshon Brooks is the second coming of Kobe Bryant.

Lol, the main problem is that nobody will want to see them play, meaning players aren't going to want to come play for them.

We've seen what happens when promising young talent tries to recruit people to play for their respective teams in a place nobody wants to go *cough* LeBron.

We're all in the same game, just different levels. Dealing with the same hell, just different devils

We're going to be rebuilding around two great young players plus who ever we draft with our potential top 5 pick. The only players I would like the Nets to go after are decent players like Wilson Chandler.

Nigga stop it with this &quot;potential top 5 pick&quot;. Ya'll sold ya soul to rent a nigga for a season. Do you forget those two first rounders and cash you sent to Utah along with Favors and Harris. Just admit you're stadium grand opening it gonna be a bust. Its okay.

We're all in the same game, just different levels. Dealing with the same hell, just different devils

I still don't understand why people say we came the losers in that trade when all we did was a trade a draft pick in a weak draft which the Jazz used to draft Enes Kanter, a PG who is only going down hill and a young rookie who may only come close to being a decent player.
